ZENITH PUBLISHED BY THE JUNIOR CLASS OF SIMPSON COLLEGE INDIANOLA, IOWA EDICATION To the Simpson of the Future, that Simpson visioned by the founders and by such pioneers as S. M. Vernon, T. S.

We have endeavored to construct this volume so as to portray the twofold purpose for which we believe such a book is intended. FirSt, to record those events of the year which we thought would be of everlasting interest to the Students and those interested in our institution. Second, to be truly representative of Simpson life and Simpson spirit. It is our fervent desire that you may be inspired by the accomplishments herein recorded and be led on to even greater future endeavor.

However, with a few letter men as a nucleus, a wealth of good freshman material, and a coach such as Noel C. Workman, a successful season was assured. By fighting an uphill grade and overcoming many handicaps, an- other championship team was turned out. Upper Iowa, whom we did not play, tied us in percentage for the championship. I he only mar on our record this year was a defeat by St. Ambrose in an early season game, where our boys had an oft day. We played a tie game with Nebraska Wesleyan, who tied for the championship of North Central Conference; and we defeated Columbia, champions of the Interstate Conference. Ames.—The opening game of the season was played against Ames at Ames. The game was played upon a muddy field, a downpour of rain characterizing the last half of the game, thus eliminating any spectacular plays. In the first quarter our boys held the Missouri Valley Conference team to a standstill and threatened to score in the last, but costly fumbles in the other two quarters and loose playing gave victory to Ames 28-0. Love proved to be a strong defensive man at center, while Mercer showed he had not lost his ability of preceding years. . e bras la If esi cyan.—For the second game of the season our boys journeyed to Lincoln, Nebraska, where they encountered tlie strong Nebraska Wesleyan team. The game was played vrrivsi% upon a muddy field, handicapping both teams to the extent that 2nd All-State Knd neither side was able to score. In the punting duel, our Cap- tain Mercer proved himself superior to Wilberv, the kicking ace of Nebraska. Our team still showed inexperience by their loose playing. St. Ambrose.—A trip to Davenport followed the one to Lincoln, where St. Ambrose was met in the first conference game of the season. The Catholics defeated us 17-6. The game was a severe disappointment to Simpson fans, many disbelieving the validity of reports until the team returned home with the sad story. All the scoring was done in the first half, the first quarter ending 6-3 in Simpson’s favor. The last half was played on equal terms. As we look back over the three years of Coach “Dopey” Workman’s association with Simpson, we note that this is the only conference defeat of his football teams. State Teachers.—After the defeat at the hands of St. Ambrose, a gloom was cast over the Simpson camp. The game with State Teachers was the first home game of the season. We entered this tilt without a chance in the world to win according to all predictions. However, we put a different team upon the field than had appeared in previous games. The team played like veteran warriors, displaying the remarkable confidence and spirit that had driven Workman’s gridders to three conference cham- pionships. State Teachers, with practically the same team which held us to a 13-0 score last year, put up a stubborn defense, but of no avail against Simpson’s smooth- working machine. Officer and Garbctt, our regular ends, were back in this game after recovering from their injuries. Hogendorn, a freshman, showed up well in this game, filling the place vacated by Barney. “Chic” McCoy showed running ability, and the passes completed between “Chic” and “Moco” were spectacular. “Moco” plunged the line and kicked in his usual style while “Les” and Chumbley at tackles performed well. Parsons.—In this game Parsons was the favorite team and had their eyes upon the championship. The game was staged before a large homecoming crowd at Simpson. No matter which way the score turned a good game was assured because of the keen rivalry between the two schools. Both teams played hard, steady football, neither being able to penetrate the defense of the other. The teams played back and forth in the middle of the field, both teams being forced to punt many times. One misplay by either team would mean victory for the other. This break came in the second quarter when Wise fumbled. Garbett scooped up the ball and galloped sixty yards for a touchdown. In the second half a punt blocked by Love and recovered by Garbett led to the second counter. A bad pass to Mercer which he recovered gave Parsons their only score. I he final score was 13-2. This made the second team which Simpson stopped in their rush for the championship. Page 75 S3 ill Siplicrd (Assistant Coach). Ray (Football Manager). Meek (Assistant Coach) Des Moines —Another tough game. Again the fans were doubtful of Simpson’s chances to win and again the Red and Gold came through victorious. This game featured the I). M. I', homecoming. The field proved to be dry and in the best condition of any played upon so far. This fact gave our swift and shifty freshman, Hogendorn, a chance which he had not had before. On the first kickoff he dodged back through the entire Des Moines team for a forty-yard return. Our other fast men got away also, “Chic McCoy making some good runs, and Mercer tearing the Tigers’ line to pieces by his plunging. Mercer’s place kicking netted six points, three from the 25-yard line and three from the 40-yard line. The passing combination of “Moco” and “Chic” proved unstoppable. Des Moines never threatened seriously though they proved to have a good team as shown by their holding us on the one-yard line and forcing us to score by a dropkick rather than a touchdown. “Moco” showed his all-state ability throughout the game. Luther.—A game of which we were so sure of winning that we almost lost. Two marches down the field in the first quarter gave us a place-kick and a touchdown, totaling 9 points. However Luther tightened and completed several nice forward passes for two touchdowns, leaving the score 14-9 in favor of Luther at the close of the third quarter. With eight minutes to go, two passes, a run, and a plunge put the ball over for the much-needed touchdown. Not satisfied with this, on the first play after the kickoff Mercer intercepted a pass and ran 35 yards for an additional touchdown. Garhett showed up well in this game, and Mercer Iwiosted his scoring record up to (A points. Columbia.—For this game we journeyed to Dubuque and gave Columbia, champions of the Western Interstate Conference, one of the worst beatings they had received in several years. The team entered this game without the services of Ruble, regular guard, and Holladay. all-state tackle, because of injuries received in practice. Ruble was out for the rest of the season but Holladay was in again before the completion of this game. Both teams made good gains ami nice runs and only by a superior passing attack did the Red and Gold emerge victorious. Officer nabbed several fine passes, while once more the combination of Mercer and McCoy worked effec- tively. Mercer raised his total points to 71 in this game. Penn—By defeating Penn in a Turkey-Day game, another team’s championship hopes were shattered. Cp to this game the Quakers held a percentage of 1000, and they fought nobly to up- hold their record. In the first quarter they unearthed such a vigorous attack that they swept Simpson off their feet and put over a touchdown. Simpson slowly recovered and held them during the next quarter. In the third quarter Simpson worked the ball into striking distance only to be held. A rushed punt and a penalty again gave us the ball on the five-yard line from where Captain “Moco” plunged over and kicked goal. From then on we had the game our own way. Passing, in which McCoy, Mercer, and Officer participated, helped to keep the Quakers humping as did the running of Mercer and Hogendorn. Another factor in our victory, which was no less noticeable in all our other games, was the formidable forward wall characterized by- two good ends, the exceptional playing of Holladay, the consistent playing of Boren and Chum- bley, the strength of Ruble, the defense of Love, and the good playing of Fisher at center. The backfield was ablv assisted bv Fisher and Brewer. m B rfiry«Y ?«Y,Y Y,: .

Mcrccr Simpson’s first game consisted of a pre-season practice game with the Chariton Roamers, a semi-pro team composed of former college stars. We received some valuable practice but met defeat by a score of 41-33. The next two games were played with the Southern Surety cagcrs of Des Moines, one game marking the opening of Christmas vacation and the other the close. Honors were split, Simpson winning the first by a good margin, 29-24, while Southern Surety avenged themselves in the second with a 25 to 17 count. In the last game Spike Yackey, a freshman, was brought to the attention of the fans as possessing lots of stuff for a future basketeer. After these preliminary games, Simpson journeyed to Penn to open the Conference cage season. Playing one of the fastest games ever staged on the Oskaloosa floor, Simpson dropped the contest 34—31. Mercer, who had not been out for basketball for the last two years, returned into the game at this time and did some nice work. Disheartened by their loss to Penn, the boys clashed with Central the next night. Led by Captain Hoogeven, high scorer in the Iowa Conference last year. Central proved too much for us. displaying a superior brand of basketball. They were leading at half time 19-13 and the final score was 31-23. Really the first home game, as far as the student body was concerned, was with the Guaranty Trust and Title Company, Cincinnati, Ohio, on January 13. Trailing by a 20-15 margin at half time, Simpson forged ahead, seeming almost sure to win, but Ohio dropped in a few quick baskets, putting them in the lead 34-32 when the game ended. Two days later our boys invaded Parsons, overcoming the Wildcats when the dope bucket was set against us. The final count was 26-18. One of our guards came forward in the scoring column. Chic McCoy caging eleven points to be the high point man of the game. The old rivalry between the schools was still present and Parsons put lots of scrap into the game, making us work hard to win. 'Phis marked the first Conference win for Simpson. In playing a return game at Indianola, Central displayed the same form and superiority they had shown before, winning by a count of 35-22. Hoogeven seemed unstoppable and death on baskets, registering six field goals and one free throw. Simpson fans who journeyed to Des Moines January 23 witnessed a pleasing victory over the D. M. l cagers. Our team came from behind and gave their opponents a sound trouncing.

I', only one basket and one free throw. With Captain Fisher as high point man, all the team broke into the scoring column to total 29 points against 19 for I). M. U. At Fayette, Simpson met defeat at the hands of Upper Iowa, 16-12. Close guarding and goad defensive work on each side kept the score down. Captain Fisher made 9 of our 12 points. The next game proved to be the “hot box of the season. Played at Cedar Falls, State Teach- ers defeated us with a score of 27-24. We led at half 9-7 and several times threw a scare into the Tutors by closing the gap in the score. Chic McCoy again did a little scoring stunt by ringing up 13 points for high point man. With the games away from home finished we now set out to conquer all on our own floor. 'File flrst victim being Western Union, who was swamped by a 75-22 score, after having held the leaders of the Conference, Kuena Vista, to a one-point victory. One feature of this game should be noted. The starting team which played the flrst half was composed of only Sopho- mores and Freshman, and they ran up as large a score in that half as the regular team did in the second. This would indicate that Simpson ought to have plenty of excellent material for the next two or three years. Having beaten us only a short time before, Upper Iowa was doomed to defeat in a return game. The contest was quite even until the last part of the game, when Simpson pulled ahead to a 37-23 victory. Garhctt, star center, again showed his ability to And the hoop. Our next opponents, the North Dakota Aggies, leaders of the North Central Conference, proved to be real basketball players. They sank baskets from all angles of the floor, passed with un- usual ease and skill, and displayed exceptionally clever floor work. They easily defeated the Simpson five 52-16. Preceded by a Freshman curtain-raiser with Melcher H. S., which our boys won 29-12, the Varsity triumphed over Nebraska Wesleyan 30-20. Lack of sufficient rivalry between the schools resulted in a somewhat slow game; but the team made up for this in the following three games. I). M. U. again fell before Simpson's crew. Simpson began with a good lead only to have it overcome before half time. In the last period the lead had swung back and forth, and after a long shot from mid-floor by Flanagan the game ended in our favor 29-28. Ciarbett also starred by counting twelve points to be high point man of the game. Another one-point margin won a second game from Parsons 23-22. Many times during the contest was the score tied to he broken first by one side and then the other. Parsons led at the half 15-13. Mercer and Fisher showed up well in this game. The last game upheld the record of closeness and thrills of the two preceding, but the extra point failed to be in our favor this time. Penn won the fray 27-25. This closed our basketball season of eighteen games, six wins and six losses in the Conference, and six games with other teams. Patje SO V ;'V V.V S-V Page 81 Page 82 TRACK 1925 With a new track to work out on. Simpson varsity track men came out this spring in sufficient numbers to insure plenty of competition in most of the events. With such men as Robert Rates, Ramey McCoy, Shirley Prugh, Captain Mahr, Ray Weidman, and the Shepherd twins as a nucleus. Coach Workman pointed his team towards a dual meet with Ames on Saturday, April 18. This was the first outdoor meet for both schools and it also marked the dedication of Simpson’s new quarter mile track. 1 he track was soft, making the races slow, consequently no local records were established. One field record was broken when J. Shepherd of Simpson heaved the javelin 158 feet, 10 inches, boosting the college mark from 156 feet, 6 inches. Simpson won four other firsts, Prugh and Rates winning individual honors with two firsts and a second apiece. The final score was: Ames 88, Simpson 44. The results were discouraging ex- cept for the consoling fact that Simpson stepped out of her class when engaging with the Missouri Valley runners. At the Drake Relays, April 24 and 25, Simpson entered some fast relay teams as well as some good men in the special events. It was here that Rates made a name for himself and Simpson when he cleared the bar in the special high jump event at 6 feet. 2x z inches. This placed him in a tie for second place against some of the best performers of the nation. Russell of Chicago University took first with a leap of 6 feet, $x inches. Captain Mahr The next meet was a triangular affair between Simpson, Des Moines University, and Penn, held on the Simpson field. Although quite one sided, it was an interesting meet throughout. Simpson captured all but three first places, placed in every event, and in the high jump and javelin throw took every place. Prugh of Simpson was the individual star, winning 19J4 points. Des Moines University was poorly represented because most of their varsity men were at the Dakota Relays. The Iowa Conference meet was the next on Simpson’s schedule. It was held on the Des Moines University field, Saturday, May 9. Here the Simpson track and field artists forced Iowa State Teachers College to the limit to win first place, and it was not until the last race that the winner of the meet was decided. Simpson men placed in most of the events, winning three firsts, seven seconds, and three thirds. Prugh took the low hurdles, Rates the high jump, and Weidman the half mile. The winners were State Teachers, 57 1-7 points; Simpson, second, 45 1-7 points; with Parsons, Penn, and Buena Vista next in the order named. A week after the Conference meet, Simpson journeyed to Cedar Falls for a dual with State Teachers. Although the Tutors had defeated them previously, the Red and Gold were confident of victory until they arrived on the scene, tired and stiff from a long ride in a bus, scarcely two hours before the meet was scheduled. LittL need be said about the meet. State Teachers won but they were forced to break several records to do it. In the last meet of the season, Simpson easily defeated Graccland College at Lamoni by a score of 93-38. J. Shepherd won individual honors with three firsts, and by running as anchor man on the halt mile relay team. Simpson took all but two firsts and in seven events won every place. At a meeting called by Coach Workman after the meet the letter men elected J. Shepherd captain of the 1926 team.

To participate in this sport requires more endurance than in practically any other sport. The contestants are required to run over a course three and seven-tenths miles in length. This course goes up hill and down through fences and hedges and various other obstacles, circling around to the place from which they started. A cross country team is composed of from six to eight men. In scoring each contestant is given the number in which he finished the race, first, second, third, etc. After all the runners are in the team having the lowest score wins. Simpson has had two such meets up to this time. The first was with Penn two years ago. Simpson won by a score of 35-21. Auld of Penn finished first, with Chisholm of Simpson as close second. The remainder of the Simpson team followed in short order, placing ahead of the Penn team. The second meet, held this fall, was also with Penn. Simpson came out victorious again but by the small margin of 28-27. Penn finished in the first two places but Kent, Lawrence, Hanscll, and Chisholm of Simpson finished in the next four places. The other Simpson men, Lindsey and Fawcett, finished far enough ahead of the remaining Penn runners as to give us the victory. We will be without the services of Captain Chisholm next year but ought to have plenty of material for a good team. As yet no rewards are given to cross country men either in the form of letters or track points. However, in the future as the sport progresses, recognition will prob- ably be given to the men who participate. CROSS COCNTRV SQCAD Patjc 86 ■'. TENNIS The first meet of the year was a dual match with Parsons and was played on the Wakonda Country Club courts in Des Moines. Even though a surprise match, being called a week earlier than planned, Simpson won a shutout 6-0. The team was composed of Buxton, Tutt, McCoy, McGee, and Sipherd. The next meet with Drake was also played on the Wakonda courts. Drake won 4-2. McCoy won his singles, while McGee and McCoy won their doubles for Simpson's points. In a dual meet with Ames played on the Simpson courts we tied for honors 3-3. Sipherd, Ray, and McCoy won their matches in singles competition. Ray and Sipherd played a long seesaw battle which if won would have decided the meet in our favor. The next week witnessed three meets for our tennis team. At Grinncll we lost 4-2. McCoy won his singles, while he and McGee won their doubles. The second encounter with Ames surprised even the players by the decisive victory for Simpson, 6-0. However all the matches were close. Simpson clearly played the best tennis of the season here. With Penn, our boys won all except one singles match, score 5-1. The meet was characterized by close matches and good playing. The Iowa Conference Tennis Meet was held at Simpson this year, each school entering two singles and a doubles. Simpson, the favorite, was doped to win, hut as is so often the case the dope bucket upset allowing Luther to carry off all honors. The closing meet Drake won from us 5-4. It was a nine match meet played on Simpson courts. The letter men were Sipherd, McGee, Tutt, Ray, and McCoy. - M5- Captain Sipherd TENNIS SQUAD Page 87 large number of men turned out, from which Coach Harry Kunze was able to develop a strong team. The letter men who were back were Han- sell, Bingainan, McCarthy, and Holladav. The team this year was composed of Boudreau, 115-pound class; Mansell, 125-pound class; Krie- der, 135-pound class; Bing,” 145-pound class; Hogendorn, 158-pound class; Griffin, 175-pound class, and Holladav, heavyweight. The first encounter was with Ames, crack team of the middle west, from whom Simpson won one match and drew two. “Bing threw Schmidt in an overtime period, gaining five points. Boudreau drew with Meyer, acquiring one point; Krcider followed his example, drawing with Smith, for one more point. The final count was 20—7. In the next meet Simpson shut out I). M. U. 29-0. Boudreau, Mansell, Bingainan, and Holla- day won their matches by a fall. Krieder, Mogcn- dorn, and Griffin won by decisions, each having considerable time advantage. This was the only home meet. By journeying to Cornell our grapplers engaged with another good team which ranks with that of Ames. However, Captain Bingainan won five points for Simpson while the others of the team held Cornell down to 22 points. Hogendorn was able to keep from being thrown by Cornell’s cap- tain, Truckenmiller, who wrestled on the United States’ last Olympic team. Mansell, Krieder, Bingainan, Hogendorn, Grif- CAPTAIX Bingaman fin, and Holladav won letters. «•-V4V V ' • [ WRESTLING SQUAD Page SS :.y«v,,v YtY„Y CiOI.F IK AM GOLF ( olf, the rich man's sport, was successfully introduced at Simpson last year, for the first time in the history of the institution. Several promising men answered Captain Wat- son's call for golfers, Simpson being fortunate in having an abundance of good material. Those finally making the Varsity team were Vinton Watson, Merle Stimson, Deane Chapman, Leaton Hughes, and Duane Judkins, the first four being rewarded with minor sport letters for their efforts. Four meets were held during the season. The first was with Des Moines University, our men scoring a complete shutout for a score of 23-0. Des Moines U. being the only other school in the Iowa Conference supporting a golf team, Simpson invaded the Missouri Valley loop and tackled Drake. The final score was Drake 16, Simpson 9. For the third match Simpson went a step higher and invaded the ranks of the Big Ten, engaging the State University of Iowa. Iowa won after a long struggle by the score of 17-9. The feature match of the meet was between Stimson and Peterson of Iowa, Stimson winning after a thrilling battle. The last match was with Drake, being a repetition of the second. The score this time was Drake 11, Simpson 6. Stimson was the outstanding Simpson man throughout the season. He won all his matches and displayed remarkable skill at all times. He is conceded by followers of the game to be the best college golfer in the state. Simpson made a splendid showing in her first year at the game and we hope that it will find a regular place in the athletic program of the school. Captain Watson Page 89 For the third year intra-mural sports have taken a prominent part in Simpson athletics. More interest has been shown this year than in any previous year. Owing to its prominent place in Simpson life we feel justified in devoting consider- able space to it in this book. INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL FINAL STAN DIN ( IS G. w. L. PERCENT O. K.

All organizations had a team and the Faculty added their name to the list. The tournament games were played on Satur- days and evenings, played in round robin fashion. As the tournament progressed the games became more exciting and close and the outcome more uncertain. Before the finish every team had been beaten, but two only once. However, in the last games these two were each beaten, so that when the final percentage was made, four teams stood tied for first place. These were the C). K. N., A. T. ()., C. C., and Faculty. It was determined to play the tie oft by an elimination contest. In the first round the C. C. defeated the Faculty in two extra periods, 10-9; and the O. K. X. defeated the A. T. O. 16-15. The final game between the C). K. N. and C. C. was won by O. K. N., thus giving them the cup for the second consecutive year. Flanagan led the scoring column of the tournament with a total of 69 points for the season. trim Pag,- 91 •wvw-.fotv: 19 2 7 ZENITH TENNIS Stimson Singles Champion Johnson- Brothers Doubles Champions HORSESHOE Page 92 .s . -■ a . a'a ■' Page 93 I NT R A- . i U R A L B A S E B AI, L FINAL STANDINGS 0. w.

O., an organization of Mary Berry waiters and kitchen help. The K. Y. B. O.’s had won the cup the year before and showed promise of repeating when the Kappas lost in the next round, leaving only the A. T. O.’s and K. Y. B. O.’s in the lead. The K. Y. B. O.’s suffered a defeat, but there was still a chance that the tournament would end in a three-cornered tie, until after the final game of the series between the K. Y. B. O.’s and the A. T. O.’s. The latter won by a score of 10-0, thereby adding the cup to their possession for a year at least. RASEBAI.I. CHAMPIONS r ?

This game is volley ball. At first is seemed that no one could ever become skillful in the new game, but gradually the girls improved until a great deal of interest came to be taken in the sport. In the tournament the Sophomores came out victorious. They played the Junior and Senior team and the Freshman team, winning both games, in this way giving them the claim to the school inter-class championship in this sport. Special mention should be made of the splendid record of the Sophomore class not only in this sport but in the other W. A. A. sports. They put out a winning team in soccer, in basketball, and in volley ball. They had an abundance of good material and seemed at all times to be able to conquer the other teams. SOPHOMORK VOLLEY HAM.

Twenty per cent of each class may be elected, but not more than ten per cent at time of graduation. From the classes that have graduated during the time the present grading system has been effective, eligibility for membership has been based primarily on Simpson grade records. From the classes before that time, eligibility for membership is based primarily on scholastic achievement since graduation from Simpson. The faculty committee has not yet been able to complete nominations for membership of alumni. Of the one hundred and twenty-three persons elected, the following have accepted membership in the organization. 1876 1878 1S79 1SS0 1882 1885 1886 1897 1888 1890 1894 1896 1898 1899 1901 1903 1904 1905 1906 1907 1908 1909 1911 1912 1913 E.

Bossing NATIONAL PI KAPPA DELIA CONVENTION The National Pi Kappa Delta Convention was held at Estes Park, Colorado, from March 29 to April 1. Simpson sent four delegates with their coach who made a most enviable record. There were three hundred and ninety-two delegates registered from over one hundred colleges and universities in every section of the nation. Of this number there is perhaps no school who ranked as high as Simpson in as many contests. Competing against twenty of the best college women orators in the nation. Miss Doris Hatch, Simpson’s only woman delegate to the convention, won second place in the National Oratorical Contest, running a close second to Miss Frances Goodhue of Nebraska Wesleyan University who took first. In the ranking of the judges for the final contest Miss Hatch received two firsts, two seconds, and a fourth, while Miss Goodhue of Nebraska Wesleyan received two firsts, two seconds, and a third. In the minds of the audience, however. Miss Hatch was easily the winner of the contest. Mr. Dwight Cart, however, recorded the most remarkable accomplishment among the Simpson delegates. From a field of forty-eight entrants Mr. Cart captured fourth place in the men’s oratorical contest, which was won by Roger Walsh of the L'niver- sify of Redlands, Redlands, California. Simpson’s debate team composed of Roderick Chisholm and Horton Talley went to the sixth round of the debate tourney where they were defeated by Westminster Col- lege. Sixty-four teams entered the debate tourney and when the Simpson debaters were eliminated only eleven teams remained in the race. In addition to this, three of the Simpson students qualified for the Pi Kappa Delta Degree of Special Distinction which permits them to wear the diamond jewel key. Those who qualified were Miss Hatch, Mr. Cart, and Mr. Chisholm. To place two orators in the final National Contests and be represented as well in debate as was Simpson, is a record that can be equalled by no school at the Convention. Simpson is justly proud of the splendid showing of her delegates.

They looked upon the printing profes- sion as an art and lost sight of the commercial aspect of the business. This practice prevailed until about the middle of the past century, at which time the commercial idea almost obliterated the ar- tistic and the quality of printing deteriorated to an alarming extent. Many printers today do not seem to appreci- ate that quality is an essential in the establish- ment of a good printing business. The public is largely to blame for this situation. Often it is the matter of a few cents or a few dollars, according to the size of the con- tract. that determines who will do the work. A firm with a reputation for quality receives no more consideration than one that cares but little for the appearance of the work they turn out. Our policy is to give every piece of work the care which it merits. If it be a College Annual such thought and atten- tion is given as is neces- sary to produce a book that will look well and wear well. A blank form gets the considera- tion that it should to be of service to the user. And so with every kind of work—each class re- ceives the proper atten- tion to make it attractive and useful. Whatever vour needs you will ren- der yourself a service if you turn your printing over to us. ‘Dependability llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Cli EITHER IS ANYTHING % of any magnitude or impor- £ V tance so built. It has taken two decades of continuous effort to rear our business to its present size and standing. G. Years of experience in the making of college and school annuals in a pleasing and attractive style, at a cost within the reach of any school, has en- titled us to be classed as Master Annual Builders There is a sense of satisfaction in turning your annual over to a concern in which you can have absolute faith. The knowl- edge that the printing and binding will go along right without any worry or anxiety on your part enables you to give your time and concentrate your efforts on as- sembling the copy, arranging sales cam- paigns, and other details of importance.
